I've learned something in these past couple weeks...Trust few. I've heard about people who are totally nice to my face make snide, unflattering comments behind my back. I learned that even though I did my best and went out of the way to help people my senior year that the moment I'm gone I'm forgotten and ridiculed like I'm a freak in a circus side show. I take for example Chase... His case is far worse than mine for he was in quite a pickle concerning his life, yes I'm aware he caused this to happen, yet when he needed someone ANYONE to be there for him he was left on his ass sucking his thumb like a child hoping that there would be an answer to his needs. Funny thing he's become better for it.
Have I become better for what I've went through?... My case varies from the previously mentioned as I had no real say to what I went through, JUST out of high school, JUST turned 18, and wham reality body slammed me and threw me from a cliff. Now when most people go through a rough time there's always someone to count on...Any takers(excuse my attempts at jokes) I now know that I have become better for what transpired this past summer and I now know that people will be your buddy and your best friend when everything is going perfectly fine for you and everything is wonderful, but the moment your life heads south they're out the door like a teenage father and talking behind you like well... I don't have an analogy for that one. But it makes me wonder...Should I keep reaching out to people even though I know that human nature is to do just as I stated?... More thoughts I must have before I can understand this truly.(I really just wanted to talk like Yoda there).
